Summer Internship & Upcoming Events

Greetings!



We're looking for summer interns! Interns will play a hands-on role in building Democratic energy in DuPage County ahead of the 2026 Midterm Election. Opportunities include knocking doors, community outreach, supporting candidates, helping rally Democrats to vote this fall, and assisting with events, social media, website updates, postcard-writing parties, and other grassroots organizing activities.


This is an unpaid program with a time commitment of 10–20 hours per week. The schedule and dates are flexible. High school students, college students, and recent graduates are welcome to apply.


We're hosting two virtual info sessions about the summer internship program on Wed. April 29 at 12pm and 6pm CT.


We're also excited to offer a unique full-day in-person DEI workshop on Saturday, April 25 with one of the country's leading experts: founder and CEO of Courageous Conversation, Glenn E. Singleton.

Saturday, April 25 from 10:30 AM to 4:30 PM
